Polar and Non polar Molecules, VSPER Notation

What are intermolecular forces? (IAF)

The forces of attraction between molecules

What are the 3 intermolecular forces? (IAF, hint: DDH)

Dispersion forces, Dipole interactions, and Hydrogen bonds.

What are dispersion forces and which molecules have them?

Forces that are created from random movement of electrons, causing a temporary dipole. all molecules have them

What are dipole interactions, (HINT: magnet) and what molecules have them?

\+ end attracted to the - end, only to POLAR molecules

What are Hydrogen bonds, and which molecules have them?

a hydrogen bond is when the hydrogen molecule is bonding with a lone pair, usually in molecules with nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine. They also have HIGH electronegativity.

What is a bond?

atoms combinding

what is an ionic bond?

the electrostatic force that holds ions together in an ionic compound.

Which of the following determines the geometry around a central atom in a Lewis structure?

The number of valence-shell electron pairs

what is the format for isotopes?

a/z X, (A= Z + N) (Z=+) (X= chemical symbol)
